The Bengels have never NOT taken some guy with character issues. NEVER. Mathieu has dominated the discussion at the combine. Everybody is talking about him. Saban passed on him when TM showed out at his camp; Kiffin passed on him when TM showed out at his camp; They looked at his size and said, well,he's dazzled me with plays, buy my eyes are lyin, so i'll pass. He's going to go quicker than most thought and he'll probably ball out in the NFL and they'll be TD posts for years on TM7 both hating and praising him. If he's really good, look out Richard Sherman cuz your place as the mouthiest DB will be overtaken, lol.

Yeah what does a DC know about football. The NFL is for dummies, it's not like being physically fit in all aspects is important in the NFL or for that matter important to your draft stock. Only making it to the playoffs two years in a row is garbage.

Cincy likes LSU players. Andrew Whitworth, Nate Livings , Skyler Green and SEC DBs Dre Kirkpatrick. TM7 hates Dre K so much that may be a reason for Zimmer to worry. Would love to see him or Eric Reid in the Nati.
